Schoeps CCM 4XP U Compact Microphone for close pickup, cardioid, permanently attached cable, incl. SGC and premium case
This type of microphone has a low-frequency rolloff to compensate for the low-frequency boost which occurs when close-miking.
- cardioid pattern
- for pickup of speech or music at close range (under 10 cm)
- considerable attenuation of low frequencies
Application
This microphone type is used primarily in voiceover and sound reinforcement applications, and wherever good speech audibility in a noisy environment is a prime requirement.
It is suited for the recording of music in exceptional cases only. When it is used at a distance of ca. 10 cm flat frequency response can be obtained.
